I'm always here, where are you?
I'm by the lamp on
the table in the room.
Worried, anxious,
yet happy, but waiting.
Where are you?
I seek you out like
I'm trying to find you in
a game of hide-and-seek.
If I came to you,
would you hide from me?
The sun is soon setting;
nighttime is near.
I know the time to leave
will soon be here.
It's so hard to leave
your magnetic pull.
I hope that soon I'll
sleep and search for you.
You'll be waiting in the
corner of the room.
Morning is coming
It's sooner than I think.
You're the sunrise shining
through the window on me.
I wake up, look around to see—
Where are you?
You're right where you say
you'll always be: in my heart ❤️

I am in the corner of the room
nervous and lonely
where are you?
I search and I pray
If you came around me
would you stay?
The night is black
and the morning is blue
the sun is the light I use
to search for you.
My heart is the pond
that your river runs through
If I am here
where are you?
Oh there you are
sitting on the limb of the tree
that my heart grew

I imagine your hearts in a maze I get to explore.
You have me knocking at every trick door.
At the entrance There's a roadmap with instructions to view.
I look for a loophole I can manipulate myself through.
Is there a hidden or a dark side I shouldn't go towards?
Or is this dark side something I'd want to explore?
You'd give me the spare key, so I can enter whenever,
You'd let me visit inside your heart, now and forever.
This maze could be fun; something interesting to do.
If I continue this maze, I'll visit every room.
I'll learn about you and what makes your heart tick.
Only you could push me away and make my heart sick.
I look into your eyes, like a clear window to look through.
I'm not scared of your heart, for it is safe here; I'll never question you.
In this maze of your heart, I am venturing in.
It's the most amazing journey; to me, you're more than a friend.
I could write all day, every day, on the walls of your heart.
For the walls would be covered with such beautiful art.
Art made by not only me, but we will make this art together.
We could paint and write there forever.
Look at this beautiful mess we've created.
I know in my heart this will last for ages.
Your heart is the medicine that helps to replace,
The feeling I have when I'm not in the right headspace.
The light in your heart, at first, seemed dim.
Was it me? Did I maybe help bring some light back in?
I told you I'd be your light in the darkest of rooms,
because you have been saving me from so much gloom.
I'm thankful to have this wonderful maze.
Since you gave me this heart, I'm busy all day.
I'd never trade it for anything else.
That's why your heart's not sitting on a shelf.
Trust me with your heart, and you can have mine.
Just promise never to leave me behind.
